The head of the Ukrainian delegation in the trilateral contact group, Leonid Kravchuk, considers it wrong that Russia is not responsible for the documents on Donbass signed by it.
The head of the Ukrainian delegation to the Trilateral Contact Group (TCG) Leonid Kravchuk, in an interview with Radio Svoboda, published on September 20, said what, in his opinion, should be changed in the Minsk Accords.
“For example, now Russia takes the position that it is there, so to speak, an observer, although it signs documents together with Ukraine, but it says: it is not responsible for what it signs. Like, this is internal, the war in Donbass is an internal matter of Ukraine Let them, they say, decide, and Russia will see how it is resolved. Maybe they can help us, well, not us, let’s say, CADLO. That position cannot be, “he said.
According to the head of the Ukrainian delegation to the TCG, “it is necessary that all the signatories of any international document be equal, it is mandatory.”
“This means that it must be regulated, it is necessary to regulate the mechanisms for implementing these decisions and, thirdly, it is necessary to define clearly, clearer, clearer the competencies of the organization that does it. His powers, written by the letter or by some documents, do not exist. Well, many other things can be proposed to solve the mechanism that is needed, but, well, maybe the war will end before that time, then nothing. I would like this to happen, “explained Kravchuk.
In 2014, immediately after the annexation of Crimea, Russia launched an armed aggression in eastern Ukraine. The fighting is between the Armed Forces of Ukraine, on the one hand, and the Russian army and the Russian-backed militants who control parts of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions, on the other. The Russian Federation does not officially recognize its invasion of Ukraine, despite the facts and evidence presented by Ukraine.
Negotiations on the resolution of the conflict are taking place within the framework of the trilateral contact group in Minsk (Ukraine – OSCE – Russia) and the Normandy Four (Ukraine – Germany – France – Russia).
On September 5, 2014, TCG approved 12 clauses of the Minsk agreements.
On February 12, 2015, the second Minsk agreements were signed with the mediation of Germany and France. They provide for a ceasefire, the withdrawal of heavy weapons, the monitoring of international observers, the holding of local elections in accordance with Ukrainian law, amnesty for the parties to the conflict, the release and exchange of prisoners, access to humanitarian missions to help those in need, the return of control of the border with Ukraine and the constitutional reform in Ukraine. in terms of decentralization. On the Ukrainian side, the document was approved by the fifth president of the country, Petro Poroshenko, on the Russian side, by Putin.
